Green Book

Inspired by a True Friendship.

2018130 min8.2 / 10

A warm, character-driven road movie about an unlikely friendship between two men navigating racial segregation in 1960s America, balancing humor with the gravity of systemic racism.

Tony Lip, a bouncer in 1962, is hired to drive pianist Don Shirley on a tour through the Deep South in the days when African Americans, forced to find alternate accommodations and services due to segregation laws below the Mason-Dixon Line, relied on a guide called The Negro Motorist Green Book.
